A fascinating documentary has lifted the lid on life inside a fundamentalist Mormon community where families still practice 'plural marriage' - but insist they're nothing like the horrific FLDS cult founded by Warren Jeffs.
Peter Santenello, 45, a popular YouTuber who is based in the US, recently spoke to a group of people who are part of what's known as the Righteous Branch of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints - and they spilled on everything from why the believe in polygamy to how the women combat 'jealousy' over their husbands spending time with his other wives.
Peter visited the community that they live in, which is located in Nye County, Nevada and documented his experience in a video shared to his YouTube channel in December.
They revealed that a 'prophet' chooses who they should marry - but vowed that every woman has the final say unlike Warren's 'horrible' and 'mind controlling' FLDS.
'Of all the 17 million Mormons that exist in this world, under half of one per cent have stuck to the fundamentalist doctrine,' explained the YouTuber in his vlog.
'We're gonna get in with some of these fundamentalists to see how they live, understand plural marriage better, and get an inside look of a world that most of us will never see. Let's do this.'
In the documentary, he chatted with one woman, named Trina, who revealed that she used to be part of a plural marriage before her husband passed away.
When asked why they practice polygamy, she explained that they believe that if a man is 'really good and righteous' he should 'have the opportunity to be the father to as many children as possible.'

If You Could Hie to Kolob--a Mormon hymn that the Mormon Tabernacle Choir probably doesn't perform in front of non-Mormon audiences.

There are not 17 million Mormons worldwide
They boost their rolls by baptizing the dead and put them on the rolls...

Writ large, there has to be a very large percentage of permanent bachelors in this sort of arrangement. I wonder how they sort it out.

Im a Mormon because the Mormons did some dead dunking with every possible additional honor on my 3rd GGF (1797-1881) and all his descendants dead and alive up to that date in the early 1950s
(There is not reversing it in the Mormon religion either...
I was about 5 at the time so that included me ...
Im more a Mormon than Willard

There is a singing group in Utah. You have to have an IQ below 70, eat an apple and a soft drink. They are called the Moron Tab or Apple Choir!

Peter Santenello you tube...look him up.
To: Smber
“As screwed up as this “cult” might be, are they attempting to FORCE their “beliefs” on others to the point of using violence to do so?”
When their “prophet” pairs underage girls with old men in the community and pressure marriage on minors? Yeah, I’d call that force and pedophilia.
They are isolated, propagandized, and “raised” in this, so it is no wonder they fall for it.

Praise to the man who communed with Jehovah!
Jesus annointed that Prophet and Seer.
Blessed to open the last dispensation,
Kings shall extol him, and nations revere.
Chorus
Hail to the Prophet, ascended to heaven!
Traitors and tyrants now fight him in vain.
Mingling with Gods, he can plan for his brethren;
Death cannot conquer the hero again.
Praise to his mem'ry, he died as a martyr;
Honored and blest be his ever great name!
Long shall his blood, which was shed by assasins,
Plead unto heav'n while the earth lauds his fame.
Chorus
Hail to the Prophet, ascended to heaven!
Traitors and tyrants now fight him in vain.
Mingling with Gods, he can plan for his brethren;
Death cannot conquer the hero again.
Great is his glory and endless his priesthood.
Ever and ever the keys he will hold.
Faithful and true he will enter his kingdom,
Crowned in the midst of the prophets of old.
Chorus
Hail to the Prophet, ascended to heaven!
Traitors and tyrants now fight him in vain.
Mingling with Gods, he can plan for his brethren;
Death cannot conquer the hero again.
Sacrifice brings forth the blessings of heaven;
Earth must atone for the blood of that man.
Wake up the world for the conflict of justice.
Millions shall know 'Brother Joseph' again.
Chorus
Hail to the Prophet, ascended to heaven!
Traitors and tyrants now fight him in vain.
Mingling with Gods, he can plan for his brethren;
Death cannot conquer the hero again.

what do all the other men do?.....guess...Cannon fodder. The Russians are using them in meat grinder battles with Ukraine. Bakhmut. Andriivka.
In the West, you're SOL if you're not Leonardo DiCaprio, most women will not even take a second of their time to look at you.
So if we are able to come to an agreement with Putin not to use nuclear weapons over Ukraine, we can send NATO troops and we will send expendable men to the trenches in Ukraine.
We only need 10% survivors so we can procreate for the next generation.
